Samsung S4 & 5 used to store fingerprints as PNG files!!! Joseph Hindy – 2016-02-12 12:24:55-0500+Keith I Myers yeah that’s kinda nuts. glad that requires at least a modicum of technical know-how before it can be pulled off =/Keith I Myers – 2016-02-12 12:38:02-0500+Joseph Hindy – Honestly this is a terrible oversight on LGs part to even allow this to happen in the first place. Hopefully once upgraded to 6.0, they will use the native Android API but you never know for sure.
Ultimately you can protect yourself by setting up 4 fingerprints on your phone as well. I would do this if I were you. Joseph Hindy – 2016-02-12 12:47:40-0500+Keith I Myers I already do actually lol.
